Peru's president has enacted a law that authorises military planes to shoot down suspected drug flights.
Peru halted shoot-downs after 35-year-old US missionary Veronica Bowers and her infant daughter died in a 2001 attack on a plane wrongly identified as carrying drugs.
Washington earlier had supported the policy, but Peruvian officials say the US opposed restoring it.
